Whoa! Has it really been that long since I posted here??
Uggh. Oh well. I ended up performing a water change at the office with Python Products "Clean and Fill No Spill" device - which I purchased from Drs. Foster Smith. Since I hadn't performed a water change or cleaned up my aquarium for quite a while, I decided I'd better perform some maintenance at home too.
The problem is that the water/tank was so nasty - and took so much time - that I pretty much was limited to cleaning the gravel and pulling out water, and then using the same product to fill the tank back up. All of that means that tomorrow I'll get a chance to do some aquascaping (removing some partially dead / dying Amazon Swords plants, separating up the Java Fern, and moving around some of the Java Moss, etc.)
I should also state that the Killifish are still alive, as is the Japonica shrimp. However, the last Japanese Trapdoor snail passed a while back.
I will also mention that I am planning a HUGE picture update (mostly of Christian) and will be reworking the existing pictures links.
